Chapter 565: Chapter 255: Divinity
"Brother Tai Sui, you’ve made it into the top eight."
As Han Feng spoke, he reminded Gao Xin to pay attention to the upcoming draw.
By this point in the tournament, the ninth round of battles had arrived, and due to his various prolonged fights, seven days had passed since the Tiger King Conference began.
After eight rounds, most contestants had been eliminated, leaving only the top eight.
They were: Gao Xin, Han Feng, Wei Miao, Yak, Tequila, Dragon, Themis, and Piscis Austrinus.
Piscis Austrinus Feis was the most unexpected among them.
According to past events, he would be lucky to reach the top sixty-four.
But this time he had broken into the top eight, partly because of his good draw luck, and partly because he had three S-rank weapons in his hands!
He and his two companions had bought a total of three from Gao Xin, originally one for each person.
However, his companions were not so lucky and were eliminated early on, so they simply lent their weapons to him.
This greatly increased his fighting power.
Additionally, influenced by Gao Xin, he had also broken through, drastically changing his style to wielding three swords at once.
At first, it didn’t go well, but he adapted quickly.
And because he trained alongside Gao Xin, he received the most guidance, eventually becoming the contestant with the most improvement during the competition.
Yes, he had improved even more than Kira.
After all, Kira had been eliminated after fighting Gao Xin and had no more real battles.
Whereas Feis kept challenging stronger opponents without being overwhelming, and surprisingly fought his way into the top eight.
"The draw is happening!"
"I hope I draw Brother Tai Sui, or if not, then Feis..."
Han Feng muttered incessantly.
Feis laughed, "I was hoping to draw you. This time I’m certain I can beat you."
Both of them hoped to draw Tai Sui as an opportunity to further hone their skills.
If not, then as a second choice, they would pick the other, considering him an easier target.
Among the top eight, they were both at the bottom of the list.
However, contrary to their wishes, they drew Yak and Themis respectively.
"Ah..."
"I’m up against Themis?"
Han Feng covered his forehead, clearly disappointed.
The last person he wanted to face was Themis.
The guy blasted anyone he saw, and his force field was incredibly strong.
Most crucially, that guy was a robot, and Han Feng’s forte was genetic editing...
"I wanted to fight Brother Tai Sui. I have a special technique designed to counter Tai Sui’s organ overclocking, but it’s a pity I won’t get to use it," said Han Feng resignedly.
Gao Xin spoke indifferently, "This draw result was inevitable."
"You two could not possibly have drawn each other."
"Because the organizers don’t wish to see the top four in the betting odds clash too early."
Han Feng raised an eyebrow, so this matchup wasn’t random after all.
Now in the top eight, the matchups were Gao Xin vs. Dragon, Wei Miao vs. Tequila, Piscis Austrinus vs. Yak, and Themis vs. Han Feng.
And the top four in the betting odds, Themis, Yak, Gao Xin, and Wei Miao, had not encountered each other up until now.
Feis said disdainfully, "After all, there’s no resurrection match, one loss and you’re out."
"If they clash too early, it means that one must go, which the organizers don’t want to see."
"They hope you all make it to the semifinals, to face each opponent at least once."
Gao Xin nodded slightly, it was becoming quite obvious.
The first match to see was Wei Miao’s great battle against Tequila.
"Lightning Cut!"
Tequila, the genius of Vodka, had trained his biological power to be as strong as that of Gao Xin.
He specialized in this module, and his one brilliant move was feared by all.
But this time, he was defeated.
Wei Miao activated ten stages of overclocking in an instant, dodged with a flicker of movement, and passed Tequila by a hair’s breadth.
Too fast, the ten stages of overclocking were really too terrifying, with strength and reaction speed both exploding by 1024 times.
Tequila’s head was snatched off by Wei Miao just like that.
"Damn, Tequila used to finish off his opponents with one move, but facing this woman, he gets one-shotted himself?"
"The people from the Extreme Meaning Army are just too outrageous. How can she activate ten stages without turning into a skeleton?"
"That must be some kind of module."
"It’s not a module, I’ve heard that the Extreme Meaning Army has quite a few people who can do this."
The crowd was shocked by Wei Miao’s performance, this woman was always winning with a quick overclock and elimination.
But this time, her opponent was a top-tier contender, a completely different caliber.
Yet, the result was the same quick defeat.
It could only mean that absolute power and speed, coupled with legendary awareness, made a single strike deadly against anyone.
Gao Xin looked at Piscis Austrinus Feis: "Quite a few people can do this? Overclock without losing flesh and blood?"
Feis responded, "There are some strong individuals on the island from the Extreme Meaning Army, one of them can do just that, and his name is Quinn."
"One of the reasons Quinn dominated as Elephant King for many years is because his overclock consumes a very low amount, as long as he replenished it, he could practically overclock indefinitely since it burns slower than his recovery rate," explained Feis.
Gao Xin was astonished: "To be overclocked constantly..."
This ability was preposterously powerful.
Overclocking meant exponential bursts of energy at the expense of one’s own flesh, and yet the Extreme Meaning Army seemed to have found a way to overcome this cost?
And apparently, it wasn’t a module.
If a module was owned by several people at once, it could only be acquired through the Silver Tower exchange.
Otherwise, it would be a coincidence that everyone just happened to evolve in the same way.
But the latter is a matter of probability, how could they all be in the Extreme Meaning Army?
And the Extreme Meaning Army didn’t have access to Silver Tower exchanges, so it’s very likely not a module.
"If it’s not a module, what else could it be?" Gao Xin murmured.
Han Feng suggested, "Maybe a nano-implant? Nano-implants can also reduce the consumption of overclocking. Perhaps she has an S+ grade nano-implant."
Gao Xin was somewhat disappointed, just a nano-implant?
At that moment, the second match of the top eight erupted, Piscis Austrinus Feis vs. Yak.
As Feis was about to go down, Gao Xin stopped him and whispered a few words in his ear.
